hi everyone

i´m about to switch from pc to mac with a new powerbook 1.67. i will be mainly using Reason, Ableton and a couple of instruments like Absynth and Battery, with a tascam us.122 soundcard.

My question is: will 512m of RAM be a serious problem or will it be enough if i keep a low track number?

thanks

Just to give you some advice. Every program for Mac (especially Reason) chokes the CPU of Pbooks and sometimes the G5. So far, PT, Logic and Nuendo are the only fast runners on the Mac. Yes, the others are workable, but they aren't nearly as optimized as the others. The difference is multi-cpu and AltiVec support.
